Safety of machinery - Permanent means of access to machinery - Part 4: Fixed ladders (ISO 14122-4:2004)
ISO 14122-4:2004 applies to all machinery (stationary and mobile) where fixed means of access are necessary.
The purpose of the standard is to define the general requirements for safe access to machines mentioned in ISO 12100-2. ISO 14122-1 gives advice about the correct choice of access means when the necessary access to the machine is not possible directly from the ground level or from a floor.
The standard applies to fixed ladders which are a part of a machine.
It may also be applied to ladders fixed to that part of the building where the machine is installed, providing the main function of that part of the building is to provide a means of access to the machine.
It also applies to ladders which are not permanently fixed to the machine and which may be removed, moved to the side or pivoted (swivel-mounted) for some operations of the machine (e.g. changing tools in a large press).
Sicherheit von Maschinen - Ortsfeste Zugänge zu maschinellen Anlagen - Teil 4: Ortsfeste Steigleitern (ISO 14122-4:2004)
Diese Norm gilt für alle Maschinen (stationäre und mobile), für die ortsfeste Zugänge erforderlich sind.
Das Ziel dieser Norm ist, die generellen Anforderungen für sicheren Zugang zu Maschinen, beschrieben in EN ISO 12100-2, zu definieren. EN ISO 14122-1 gibt Hinweise zur richtigen Wahl der Zugänge, wenn der nötige Zutritt zu der Maschine nicht direkt vom Boden oder von einer Ebene möglich ist.
Diese Norm gilt für ortsfeste Steigleitern, die Teil einer Maschine sind.
Diese Norm kann auch für ortsfeste Steigleitern angewendet werden, die Teil des Gebäudes sind, in dem die Maschine aufgestellt ist, wobei die Hauptfunktion dieses Gebäudeteils darin besteht, den Zugang zu der Maschine zu ermöglichen.
ANMERKUNG Diese Norm darf auch für Zugänge angewendet werden, die außerhalb des Anwendungsbereiches dieser Norm sind. In solchen Fällen sollten relevante nationale oder andere Vorschriften beachtet werden.
Diese Norm gilt ferner für Steigleitern, die nicht ständig an der Maschine angebracht sind, sondern bei einigen Betriebsvorgängen entfernt oder zur Seite bewegt werden können (z. B. Auswechseln von Werkzeugen in einer großen Presse).
Signifikante Gefährdungen, die in dieser Norm berücksichtigt werden, siehe Abschnitt 4 von EN ISO 14122-1.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für maschinelle Anlagen, die hergestellt wurden, bevor CEN diese Norm veröffentlichte.
Sécurité des machines - Moyens d'accès permanents aux machines - Partie 4: Echelles fixes (ISO 14122-4:2004)
L'ISO 14122-4:2004 s'applique à toutes les machines (fixes ou mobiles) où des moyens d'accès fixes sont nécessaires.
L'objet de cette norme est de définir les prescriptions générales de sécurité d'accès aux machines mentionnées dans l'ISO 12100-2. L'ISO 14122-1 donne des recommandations concernant le choix approprié des moyens d'accès lorsque l'accès nécessaire à la machine n'est pas directement possible à partir du niveau du sol ou d'un plancher.
Elle s'applique aux échelles fixes qui font partie intégrante d'une machine.
Elle peut également s'appliquer aux échelles fixes donnant accès aux parties du bâtiment où la machine est installée, à condition que la fonction principale de cette partie du bâtiment soit de donner accès à la machine.
Elle s'applique également aux échelles qui ne sont pas fixées de façon permanente sur la machine et qui peuvent être démontées, déplacées sur le côté ou pivotées (montées sur pivot) pour certaines opérations sur la machine (par exemple changement d'outils d'une grande presse).
Varnost strojev - Trajna sredstva za dostop do strojev - 4. del: Fiksne lestve (ISO 14122-4:2004)
Ta standard velja za stroje (stacionarne in mobilne), kadar so potrebni fiksni načini dostopa. Namen tega standarda je določiti splošne zahteve za varen dostop do stroja, ki je opisan v EN ISO 12100-2. EN ISO 14122-1 podaja nasvet glede prave izbire načinov dostopa, kadar ni možen potreben dostop do stroja neposredno iz tal ali nadstropja. Ta standard velja za fiksne lestve, ki so del stroja. Ta standard prav tako lahko velja za fiksne lestve do tega dela zgradbe, kjer je stroj postavljen, če je glavna funkcija tega dela zgradbe zagotoviti način dostopa da stroja. OPOMBA: Ta standard ja prav tako lahko uporabljen za načine dostopa, ki so zunaj obsega tega standarda. V teh primerih je potrebno upoštevati pomembne državne ali druge predpise. Ta standard prav tako velja za lestve, ki niso stalno fiksirane na stroj in so lahko odstranjene, premaknjene na stran ali na tečajih (nameščene z zglobom) za nekatera delovanja stroja (npr. menjava orodij v veliki stiskalnici). Za velike nevarnosti, ki so zajete v tem standardu, glej člen 4 EN ISO 14122-1. Ta standard ne velja za stroje, ki so proizvedeni pred datumom, ko je CEN objavil ta standard.

Introduction
This is the fourth part of the standard "Safety of machinery — Permanent means of access to machinery". The
parts of the standard are:
Part 1: Choice of a fixed means of access between two levels
Part 2: Working platforms and walkways
Part 3: Stairs, stepladders and guard-rails
Part 4: Fixed ladders.
This European standard is a type B standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
This standard is to be read in conjunction with Clause 1.6.2 "Access to operating position and servicing points"
and 1.5.15 "Risk of slipping, tripping or falling" of the essential safety requirements expressed in Annex A of
EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995. See also 5.5.6 "Measures for safe access to machinery" of EN ISO 12100-2:2003 which
supersedes EN 292-2.
The provisions of this document can be supplemented or modified by a type C standard.
NOTE 1 For machines which are covered by the scope of a type C standard and which have been designed and built
according to the provisions of that standard, the provisions of that type C standard will take precedence over the provisions of
this type B standard.
NOTE 2 The use of materials other than metals (composite materials, so-called "advanced" materials, etc.) does not alter the
application of the present standard.
1 Scope
This standard applies to all machinery (stationary and mobile) where fixed means of access are necessary.
The purpose of this standard is to define the general requirements for safe access to machines mentioned in
EN ISO 12100-2. EN ISO 14122-1 gives advice about the correct choice of access means when the necessary
access to the machine is not possible directly from the ground level or from a floor.
This standard applies to fixed ladders, which are a part of a machine.
This standard may also be applied to fixed ladders to that part of the building where the machine is installed,
providing the main function of that part of the building is to provide a means of access to the machine.
NOTE This standard may be used also for means of access which are outside the scope of this standard. In those cases
the possible relevant national or other regulations should be taken into account.
This standard applies also to ladders which are not permanently fixed to the machine and which may be removed,
moved to the side or pivoted (swivel-mounted) for some operations of the machine (e. g. changing tools in a large
press).
For the significant hazards covered by this standard, see Clause 4 of EN ISO 14122-1.
This standard is not applicable to machinery which are manufactured before the date of publication of this standard
by CEN.
